Integrated Controls

Maximize savings by pairing an existing air source heat pump with integrated controls.

Receive up to $1,500 when you install an integrated control with an existing air source heat pump system.

Integrated controls automatically switch between a heat pump and a fossil fuel heating system at a pre-set outdoor temperature.

This allows you to minimize the use of a boiler or furnace while maximizing the use of a heat pump to provide maximum savings and comfort.

Today's cold-climate heat pumps can provide efficient heating at outdoor temperatures as low as -15º F and operate at 2–4 times the efficiency of a boiler or furnace.

Integrated controls must be set below the maximum switchover temperatures* as outlined below. Use our Integrated Control Switchover Temperature Calculator to determine the most cost-effective temperature setting based on current fuel prices.

Pre-Existing Heating Fuel	Maximum Switchover Temperature*
Oil, Natural Gas	≤ 30º F
Propane	≤ 5º F

*Switchover temperatures are verified during post-installation inspections and based on 2019–2021 average fuel costs. Please note, the maximum switchover temperature for natural gas systems is 30°F and is designed to support decreased greenhouse gas emissions rather than operational savings.

An energy efficient home in Massachusetts

Case Study: As Good as New

Instead of moving, Vance participated in a no-cost energy assessment to find ways to make his home more comfortable. By making insulation upgrades and installing two high-efficiency mini-split heat pumps and advanced power strips, he saved $632 annually in energy costs.

Case Study: Dick MacDonough

After an existing central air conditioner unit broke down, Dick decided to upgrade to a high-efficiency heat pump and use a smart thermostat—reducing his annual carbon dioxide emissions by 5.1 metric tons.
